Organic Hemp Seed Oil
Many factors go into making Nutiva's brand of Organic Hemp Seed Oil (or "Hemp Oil"). From seed to pressing and bottle choice, we take every step possible to ensure the most readily absorbable nutrition and best-tasting flavor in our hemp seed oil.
Nutrition
By using only the finest Canadian hemp seeds available (some people call them "hemp hearts"), the result is a completely raw, unrefined, expeller cold-pressed hemp seed oil with a light green color and light nutty flavor. Our Canadian farmer partners adhere to the strictest growing methods for their organic hemp seeds.
To further our commitment to quality control, Nutiva's Organic Hemp Seed Oil is crafted in small batches. We use dark bottles to keep the light out, which can corrupt the sensitive oil; and we always nitrogen flush for purity and quality, which also delivers a superior tasting product.
we always cold press (under 104°F) our hemp seed oil from fresh, raw hemp seeds and we never use harsh chemical solvents such as hexane.
Hemp seeds are a superfood with a number of major nutritional benefits. Nutiva's cold pressed Hemp Seed ...
... Oil is a rich source of vitamin E and has the perfect balance of Omega-3 and Omega-6 essential fatty acids (EFAs) for human dietary needs. A typical serving size of Nutiva hemp seed oil contains an EFA profile of 7 grams of Omega-6 LA, 2.5 grams Omega-3 ALA, .5 grams of Omega-6 GLA and .25 grams Omega-3 SDA. These EFAs in our hemp seed oil are essential because we can actually only them through our diet—human bodies cannot produce them on their own. Because of the low quality American diet, many people do not get enough EFAs in their diet, and often, they get too many "bad" Omega-6s found in hydrogenated and trans fats.
Essential fatty acids are important because they support a healthy body including brain and heart function; they improve connective tissue elasticity, and researchers continue to study their role in preventing serious diseases such as certain types of cancer.
The types of fatty acids found in hemp seed oil include:
*Linoleic acid (LA): Unsaturated Omega-6 fatty acid vital for healthy hair and skin and proper wound healing.
*Alpha-Linolenic acid (ALA): Polyunsatured Omega-3 fatty acid that has been linked to proper cardiovascular function, and may be useful on diminishing some cancer growth, according to research studies.
*Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA): Omega-6 fatty acid with anti-inflammatory benefits linked to reducing symptoms associated with arthritis, eczema and other skin irritations.
* Stearidonic Acid (SDA): Omega-3 fatty acid that aids skin, joints and tissue growth and health.
Uses
Nutiva's Organic Hemp Seed Oil is a tasty and easy way to insure you get your daily dose of essential fatty acids.
Hemp seed oil should never be used to cook with—heat damages the delicate essential fats.
Try using Nutiva Hemp Seed oil in some of these ways:
*Mix into yogurt, smoothies and hot cereals
*Add to your favorite salad dressing and dip recipes instead of olive oil
*Drizzle onto cooked foods such as stir-fries, steamed vegetables and grains or other entrees
* Spread on toast, drizzle onto popcorn instead of butter
Storage
Keep Nutiva's Hemp Seed Oil refrigerated and airtight. Use within 8-12 weeks of opening.
